Acceptable Use Policy
Last updated October 28, 2023
Safety is core to My Spicy Vanilla’s mission and we are committed to building an
ecosystem where users can safely interact with and build on top of our
products in a harmless, helpful, and honest way. Our Acceptable
Use Policy (AUP) applies to anyone who uses My Spicy Vanilla’s tools and services,
and is intended to help our users stay safe and to ensure our products and
services are being used responsibly.
If we discover that your
product or usage violates My Spicy Vanilla’s policies, we may issue a warning
requesting a change in your behavior, adjust the safety settings of your
in-product experience, or suspend your access to our tools and services.
Finally, it’s important to remember that generative models are capable of producing factually inaccurate, harmful, or biased information. Our mission is to make safe AI systems and as we work to meet this goal, we ask that you independently verify our model responses and notify us at [email protected] when our model outputs inaccurate, biased, or harmful content.
